SQUAD: Prior returns to Sussex squad for Warwickshire clash

Sussex will begin their home campaign in the LV=County Championship Division One at The PROBIZ County Ground, Hove, when they face Warwickshire in a match that begins tomorrow (11.00am start).

The hosts’ last outing in the competition saw them storm to an impressive ten-wicket win over reigning champions Lancashire at Liverpool. Skipper Michael Yardy’s century, plus five-wicket hauls for both James Anyon and overseas debutant Steve Magoffin laid the foundations for the victory.

Sussex are able to welcome back their England wicketkeeper-batsman Matt Prior to the squad for the first time this season, following the Test series in Sri Lanka.

Warwickshire are set to include fellow England stars Ian Bell and Jonathan Trott in their line-up as the league leaders look to protect their 100% record so far this term, after they also tasted victory at Liverpool.
